A Midsummer Night's Dream by Madelyn Scott (NC-17)
Fandom: HORNBLOWER
Pairing: Horatio/Archie
Author on LJ: unknown
Why this must be read: Another common "Hornblower" story is the on-shore First Time Story. This is a charming, lovely interpretation of this. There are some slightly perfervid parts that feel off to me, but in general this is a lovely example of a typical type of story in this fandom.
"I dreamed of you," Archie murmured absently. His brows creased slightly, as if he were trying to catch the lyrics of a half-forgotten song. "I was on the Justinian. I was waiting for someone. I thought it was Jack, but it was you that came..."
Horatio shuddered, unwilling to become a new demon. "Archie - "
"...and we did such things together. The most shameless things..."
"Don't!"
"I enjoyed it."
